    Williamaeror reacted to MattP in Introduce Yourself   
    Hi, I'm Matt Priestley and I'm one of the Affinity developers. I'll try to help out on any topic, but particularly anything relating to tools, views and document drawing as they're the bits I'm mostly responsible for writing.
     
    Feel free to join me and introduce yourself, too! :)

    Williamaeror reacted to MEB in Affinity Designer Workbook   
    Hi lesliedow,
    Welcome to Affinity Forums :)
    The Help file (menu Help ▸ Affinity Designer Help) covers extensively all the features of the program, with step by step instructions.
    Additionally there's also video tutorials covering most of the features/tools/funcionality of Designer. You can find them here: In-house Affinity Designer Video Tutorials
     
    For more learning resources check:
    - Affinity Review our ezine, also includes some in-depth written and video tutorials covering specific subjects. The iBooks format includes video too (the PDF doesn't).
    - and a few more third party learning resources here, including Books, Training Courses and written tutorials that may also help.

    Williamaeror reacted to rodrigopestana in "A temporary Persona file could not be created"   
    Hello,
     
    I'm trying to open a .ai file (from Adobe Stock) and I keep getting this message:
     
    "Failed to open AI file. A temporary Persona file could not be created."
     
    I installed Affinity Designer today exactly to be able to work with these files...
     
    How can I solve this?
     
    Thank you in advance for your feedback.

    Williamaeror reacted to AiDon in [AP Beta 1.5.2.66] - Corrupted .afphoto file by Beta   
    The Beta app seems to have corrupted this file during editing and now I cannot duplicate layers as, using Ctrl+J to duplicate any layer, results in a layer as in the attached screen shot being created. The process undertaken was:
     
    Import from a multi-layered TIFF  Save as .afphoto file Turn off visibility on all layers except Background Duplicate Background layer Select a Mask using the Selection Brush Tool Mask using the Mask Layer icon Refine the mask ... Smooth 2 pixels and Feather by 4 pixels Move the masked layer up by 2 layers Turn on visibility of all layers except layer labeled ReMask Save the file  
    Next try to duplicate any layer and the layer is duplicated as in the screen shot.
     
    The AfPhoto file can be downloaded from: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hj7la7d4zm14mhj/EOS%205DS%20R172267.afphoto?dl=0

    After ditching my Adobe Design Suite membership last year, it is time to throw away my recent design tool (Sketch from Bohemian Coding) and choose Affinity Designer & Photo as the one and only primary professional web design tools.

    Williamaeror reacted to Mike Hardisty in Plugins That Work With Affinity Photo   
    These are the plugins that I have found to work so far with Affinity Photo. The image must be in 8 bit mode

    ​From the Google NIK Collection

    ​Analog Efex
    Color Efex
    ​Dfine 2
    Sharpener Pro
    ​Silver Efex
    HDR Efex

    ​Viveza crashes Affinity Photo as soon as you add a Control Point.

    ​From the Topaz Collection

    ​DeNoise
    Glow
    ​Impression
    Texture Effects

    ​ReMask gives a message about unlocking transparency first so I need to investigate that more.

    ​Other Topaz products I haven't added a plugins yet but I'll report back once I have done so

    ​Please feel free to add any plugins you get working to this list.

    Williamaeror reacted to SrPx in Affinity Designer for Windows has launched!   
    The card definitely has its impact.  But I have realized the way it is perceived depends on each individual, and also, in the planned usage for the tool.
    Illustrator is really, really good. Expecting anything to beat Illustrator might be a stretch. If anything, I would say that Affinity Designer is quite more intuitive /easier to learn for new users (and quite a number of pros) than Illustrator, by far. And yeah, that can be indeed absolutely key. Affinity Designer is very good, and has an extremely good price/purchase option. (and even more considering the other options in the market...)

    I would recommend installing a graphics card in your laptop, if that's possible. (one that is supported by it, of course). A powerful average but modern one would be desirable. I for one I can handle stuff with very low performance, as I kind of use many tricks. I have seen many artist colleagues doing this as well. But that path is not for everyone...

    If you have a powerful PC or Mac with a normal graphic card in it, I'd recommend that for a better experience.

    1.6 is going to be very good. I'd recommend to stay tuned, DEFINITELY. :)
